Re: ONE PIECE MEGA CONVO THREAD

My feeling is that Dressrosa will be an action heavy arc, with exposition coming only at the beginning, and end. If you look at their objectives, the story lends itself to fighting, not world building. Law intends to invade Dressrosa, along with the Strawhats, and destroy the Smile factory. They inevitably will also rescue Kin's comrade. Most of the Donquixote Pirates remain on Dressrosa. They all have to be defeated in order for the Allies to proceed. Much of the plot was established at Punk Hazard, once the Smile factory is destroyed I presume a break in the action will be needed, as Law explains and then initiates the third step in his plan.

Re: ONE PIECE MEGA CONVO THREAD

I would bet for strawhats being pushed back in fights, even if its a little and even if they win at the end they will show their strenght at dresrossa.
On Fishman island we have seen Elephant Gattling, Rengoku Onigiri and Hell Memories- I suspect monster trio have at least one attack above those techniques they showed us then. Zoro has stronger version of Ashura, Luffy has to have some gomu gomu no artillery kind of move with his red hawk being shot like gattling and Sanji probably developed blue flames that would go along with his All Blue dream.
Thats only mine speculations.. I want to see at least glimpse of those new amazing techniques from those so they can be later fully used against top dogs from Kaido crew- people that should be in league with Whitebeard commanders- or some strong New World brokers. Somehow I still think that they are not ready to win with any Emperor.
Crucial will be how well they will do against Doflamingo himself and if Oda will try to suggest us anything going with Aokiji vs Doflamingo fight, even if its not big fight it would be great to see their actual exchange of attacks.

Re: ONE PIECE MEGA CONVO THREAD

Seems a lot of the bigshots in the nw have a way to easily travel over water. I want to see the sh have this, especially the big 3. Maybe luffy can be like a deflating balloon.. haha or mold himself into some kind of floatation device and float on water. Sanji can jump through the air all day. Zoro? Maybe he can just swim.. a coffin would be lame since that is taken.

Be sure they are verified first, and link to a legitimate source. We do not allow fake spoilers at MH, and will not knowingly open a thread a spoiler thread without confirmation. Short of Arlong Park, or direct from 2CH (including tripcode), we are unlikely to open the spoiler threads. Feel free to PM one of the globals, or other admin. I do not read spoilers, please do not PM me.

Re: ONE PIECE MEGA CONVO THREAD

Starting this issue, they're including little notes from the mangaka on the recap/summary page for each WSJ series. Titles from sister publications, like One-Punch Man and Blue Exorcist, don't have these.

Weekly Shonen Jump: Feb 25, 2013 Issue

One Piece, Chapter 699: Morning Edition
Eiichiro Oda: After five years on the job, my editor, Hattori, is leaving me. Thanks so much. And now I'm back with Onishi!

Toriko, Gourmet 223: Targeted Chefs!!
Mitsutoshi Shimabukuro: The one-shot Mukomizu-kun that appeared in issue 11 [in Japan] was great! Hurry up and get serialized!

Naruto, Number 621: Hashirama and Madara
Masashi Kishimoto: Our beloved cat has become really spoiled lately. It refuses to eat the diet foods...

At present, Isaka takes charge of ONE PIECE manga and Hattori takes charge of ONE PIECE animation, game, goods etc.

It's a bit confused, because the note in the previous post seems to be talking about the manga (it came in the WSJ). But also it's possible that the list provided by Sandman didn't count the last editor. I will search a bit. Possibly Redon could give us a hand here.

Re: ONE PIECE MEGA CONVO THREAD

I think that the art improved shortly after the Enies Lobby arc, in the post-Enies Lobby arc it sort of seems closer to how Oda draws stuff now. Of course after the time skip was the more evident change.
